1. Removed the looping footstep sound of the "Forest Spirit" boss; 2. Fixed the issue where the mouse would stop working on the "Cabin in the Woods" level.
1. Reduced the fisheye effect and camera visual noise by 1.5x; 2. Added sound volume control; 3. Added 1600x900 screen resolution; 4. Refined the "Forest Spirit" boss AI. For the time being, updates and bug fixes will be released every three days. I am starting work on the first DLC—set in a Soviet underwater station and inspired by *Amnesia: The Bunker*—which is due for release on October 31,…
1. The player can run from the very beginning of the game (except for the corridor sequence after the blue blast door and the "Forest Cabin" location); 2. Flashlight brightness and range doubled (now you won't be wandering blindly in the dark); 3. Removed the looping chase sound for the "Forest Spirit" enemy; 4. If you run into the cave with the car while the "Forest Spirit" is chasing you, the…

As it turns out, Steam picks up the name that was specified when purchasing the slot for the game’s release... I hope this won’t cause any misunderstandings :(

New screenshot. Two free DLCs are planned for the game. ONEGA UNDERWATER HORROR – Halloween 2026. Soviet scientists discover a meteorite at the bottom of Lake Onega—and it harbors a dangerous organism. Whether the protagonist can save himself and his team is up to the player.

I sincerely apologize to all the people who are waiting for the release on June 23rd. Unfortunately, I don't have time to finalize the game to its perfect condition and have to postpone the release to July 16, 2026, so that the game won't be released during the Steam summer sale. I continue to fix bugs and polish the game. At the moment, I plan to release two free DLCs for the game in the fall,…
The script, the combat system, the interface and most of the locations are already ready. But there is still a lot of work to be done. Thank you for adding the game to the wishlists - this is very important for me as a developer :)
We were heading to the second level of the anomalous zone, the path to it lay through the basement. This time we were descending from the ninth floor of what seemed to be an ordinary Soviet apartment building; last time everything was slightly different. Gridin – the expedition leader, who had been there three times already – believed that the "Whispering Forest" awaited us, judging by the note…
Hello! I'd like to share a short video that shows the progress I've been able to make with game lighting and environment design. I hope I managed to convey the effect of presence and atmosphere of the place the player finds himself in. I continue to work on the game and will be glad to see any of your comments 😊
